S Muthusamy to Agarwal, Flighted delivery on off, Agarwal defends this to point. Pujara wanted a run there but is sent back by Agarwal. Last thing you want is to get run out without facing a ball after sitting out for a long period of time.

Cheteshwar Pujara makes his way out to the middle after sitting out for a long time in the pavilion. There is a slight delay in play as there is a discussion going on between du Plessis and the umpires. Vernon Philander was supposed to bowl but he was out of the field for a period of time. South Africa wanted the new ball but decide against it to wait till Vernon is available to bowl.

K Maharaj to Sharma, OUT! STUMPED! Finally a wicket for the Proteas and the Hitman has to return to the pavilion. A wonderful innings by him comes to an end with him being dismissed just one short of his best Test score. Maharaj floats this one just outside the off pole line, Rohit looks to prod forward and block it out but the ball spins away and Sharma misses it completely. He loses his balance and his foot is dragged out of the crease as Quinton de Kock dislodges the bails from behind. The square leg umpire raises his finger and Sharma has to walk back. The South African players go up and congratulate him on his great innings as he is dismissed on 176. The massive 317-run partnership comes to an end. It has given very little chance for South Africa to make a comeback into the game.

K Maharaj to Sharma, FOUR! Rohit Sharma has taken the risk and lofted it over the covers. This time there is much better connection on it and the ball races to the fence. The ball boys in the deep getting some great fielding practice it seems.

K Maharaj to Sharma, SIX! Sharma charges down the track and tries to loft this one over the cover boundary. He gets it off the outer half of his bat but there is still enough connection on this one to clear Vernon Philander at the long off fence for a maximum. Sharma living dangerously here.
